Tyler, the Creator Says 'F--- Bruno Mars' After VMA Win

The reign of Tyler, the Creator has no signs of slowing down. After moving from being virtually unknown on the mainstream music scene, Odd Future's most lyrically gruesome frontman couldn't hide his emotions, tearing up after taking home the Best New Artist trophy at the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday night (Aug. 28).

Even though the Los Angeles native seems to shun the spotlight, he reveals that winning the award was a big moment. "It was cool," he tells The Boombox. "I fell off stage into the arms of Kanye West, so I'm stoked."

No stranger to controversy, Tyler held nothing back when giving his opinion on a fellow artist, which happened to be singer Bruno Mars, who received four nominations but went home empty-handed. "I say f--- that dude's music. He put on a good performance but I hate his music."

The 2011 MTV Video Music Awards featured star-studded performances from the likes of Beyonce, Jay-Z and Kanye West, Lady Gaga and Chris Brown.

In this industry you’re only as good as your last success.

Talent will ultimately win out and result in a long standing career.
Conversely, someone’s 15 minutes are obviously long expired.

Tick Tock…NEXT!

Tyler?.....the creator?....who? Yeah, I'm sure he knows talent when he sees it! NOT!
He is ugly, not talented and going no where. That's why he's so mad at Bruno. He knows the difference and can't do anything about it but rant and rave at someone who does possess talent and stage presence. Mr. Creators' career will not end well, I fear! The writing is already on the wall.
